This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.
Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

My goal of doing the Welch-Dicky Loop in under 90 minutes came true today. I shaved 8 minutes off of my time from last week. I didn't think it was possible! To celebrate I took my daughter up the same trail-needless to say I didn't run it as my legs were cramping up as I hiked LOL.

25 degree morning but I was still sweating like crazy at the top. 1,700 feet vertical over 5 miles house to house - just a bit over .6 miles compare to the standard Welch-Dicky loop. Was aiming for doing it under 90 minutes but I haven't been training at all so I'll take 96 minutes!
